Description

Welcome to another unfiltered episode of the Divorce Devil Podcast! 🎙️ Whether you’re just starting your divorce recovery journey or you’re deep in the trenches of co-parenting after 40, you’re in the right place. In this episode, David and co-host Rachel are joined by Jerry—Rachel’s ex and a living, breathing example of what happens when two adults put their kids first, even when it’s messy.

Ever wondered how to actually co-parent with your ex without losing your mind (or your kids)? We get brutally honest about the joys, pains, and unexpected laughter that comes with co-parenting after divorce, especially for those of us navigating this in our 40s and beyond.

💬 This episode dives deep into:

• The real emotional rollercoaster at the start of co-parenting—anger, confusion, and all the “firsts.”

• How to put your kids first, even when you’d rather never see your ex again.

• Why loving your kids more than you hate your ex is the secret sauce to making it work.

• Dealing with sensitive children, blended families, and the “new normal” after divorce.

• The importance (and struggle!) of communication, consistency, and setting boundaries.

• Laugh-out-loud moments and real stories about screwing up—and getting it right the next time.

• Holiday and custody hacks they DON’T teach you in court.

• When to let go, when to fight, and how to survive the sh*tstorm that is post-divorce co-parenting.

We know divorce over 40 comes with extra baggage: older kids, college schedules, career changes, aging parents, and (let’s be real) less patience for drama. But we also know that with the right mindset and a little humor, you can raise strong, resilient kids and even find peace with your ex.

Why listen to us? Because we’ve lived it. Our families weren’t perfect, and we made our share of mistakes—sometimes epic ones. But we learned, we laughed, and we kept our focus on what matters most: raising great kids, no matter what.
